RODRIGUEZ DIAZ, Francisco Javier et al. Educating in jails: Therapeutical and Educational Unit -"UTE"- in Villabona (Asturias, Spain). Rev. Crim. [online]. 2013, vol.55, n.2, pp.9-28. ISSN 1794-3108.

The purpose here is get society closer to prison in order for it to share educational processes from normality spaces and, from there, develop principles for a "reeducative" action according to the present legislation of the Spanish state. The objective consists of giving shape to the main theoretical lines of the "UTE" on which its therapeutical and educational actions can be recognized and valued as grounded on the notion of conduct -observable facts, actions- on the base of their continuity and consistency, in order to be able to submit and explain the change proposal established in the processes used for their comprehension: co-responsibility and co-management, as well as their mechanism for adaptation. The analysis of the organizational features will pave the way for the presentation of the main UTE's intervention instruments: the school and the group, by identifying the different types of changes feasible in an intervention developed and deriving from the kind of stages seen through the diff erent penitentiary contexts. Finally, a reflection is made with respect to the needs that should be developed in order to give way to an alternative prison model in the Spanish state's legal system.

Palabras clave : Prison; criminal/offender; prison substitutes; the criminal's social readaptation; intervention.
